MY GRANDDAUGHTERS QUILTS

This is Brooke showing off her first quilt. She has made it for her dollies and was very happy when it was finished. Brookis 7 years old.

Here is Jade with her first big quilt, last year she made her first dollies quilt. Jade is 8 1/2 years old. Jades quilt is a row by row, quilt as you go quilt as I thought she would find it easy to sew. The binding is sewed on the machine as Jade still finds hand sewing hard to do. She added a little blue applique bird to give it a bit of character and has called her quilt Birdie Rails as the fabric used was called Birdie by MODA.
Bye for now and I will try to blog more often this year, Jude

Isn't it special to see the younger ones sewing, do hope they keep it up as they get older. I have 3 daughters that don't sew, so am working on encouraging my 3 granddaughters. Life seems to be so busy.
